Submarine Spots

The devil on my shoulder (the littlest Dinosaur) told me that the lovely Boden dress I was swooning over had gone in their sale. £129 was too steep but £38?! Yes please. The reviews are as helpful as ever, it's tiny, it's large etc etc - thanks for being absolutely no help whatsoever. As it's wool I decided to size up and am kinda regretting that decision. The dress isn't too bad when I have my arms down but the moment I stick my hands on my hips (I do that all the time ;) ) then it is obvious that it is too big. I am hoping taking it in at the darts will help though I will still wear it even if it isn't altered.

I thought that the burgundy colour choice was my favourite til this one arrived, the colour is so lovely and co-ordinates with my shed well. Hehe. It's such a lovely shape and the wool drapes beautifully. A total steal at the sale price. If the others get reduced too then they are just going to have to find their way to my wardrobe too.

I have a pretty busy weekend ahead, I'm getting my nails done (they lasted three weeks, still look great apart from the expected regrowth) I am picking up my new Emily and Fin dress then I have cakes to bake for a certain little boys first birthday and a night out to celebrate the birthday of one of my besties. Have a lovely weekend whatever you are up to :)

I have fancied that dress since I initially saw it, but thought with the fabric and style getting a "wrong" fit was probably more like than getting a good one. Will be interested to know how you get on with it...
